the organizations were all in readiness.
Commander-in- Chief OF the g. A.. r. Rea
was welcomed on alighting from the
train by Chief Marshal West and his
aides and escorted to the carriage in walt
ing. The procession then started for
the exposition building where Lib

the evening at the main entrance, and q
notable gathering Of the most famous
and solid men Of the city and state were
taking their places on the platform A.

II was Q few minutes past 8 o'clock
when the Iiberati band commenced to
play, See, the Conquering Hero Comes, =
and the procession started through the
building. The reception Of Judge Rea
on the platform was the signal for such
an enthusiastic ovation that the like Of
1t has never been seen before in the city.
Men went wild, hats were thrown into
the air, cheer after cheer resOunded and
tables and chairs were Jumped upon
while the enthusiasm lasted When It
had partly subsidized Junior Vice Com
mander Eye, who was master of ceremon-

who in few well chosen
words, cordially welcomed IL the
distinguished gentleman home. Judge
Res responded. He credited his
election to the fact Of his not being poll
itician, thanked the city for the great in

he quoted the language OF Hannibal
Hamlin, the friend and counselor Of Lin
coin: ttThere: never was a greater Orpan.a
in the world than the Grand Army
Of the Republic and he, Judge Rea,
wished to say that this grand honor
thrust upon him was to do honor to Min
nesota, because he was told by good
many that there might be more money
spent in st. Louis, there might be more
lavishness Of display, but when their
meeting was held here three years ago
they had not forgotten how Minnesota
had opened her big heart to greet them;
they had never forgotten 1t, and they
were bound through him, to do this
grand golden grained state honor

written statement of his connection with
the affair. He says therein that poverty
and his inability TO obtain employment
forced him 10 devise some means whereby
he might provide his wife and child with
the necessities OF life. To do this he
planned the robbery and approached Witt
rock with the scheme. Wittrock became
enthusiastic over it, and thereafter took
tho affair into his own hands, and he
(Haight) heard nothing more OF him until
he read an account Of the robbery in the
papers. Soon after that Wittrock sent
him $1,000 by Oscar Cook, and summoned
him 10 Leavenworth. There Wittrock
gave him $1,000 more. Ih says It was ho

sewing machines, and sixty girls who have
heretofore worked for others are now

They will each draw moderate wages

each will be kept account Of and a dividend
declared accordingly at the end of the year.
This is the first experiment Of the kind
tried in this country, and the women, who

County, this State, but like all ghost
stories they caused only smiles. Recently,
however, the entire force of choppers and
laborers at the camp left in body and
drew their pay, refusing TO return TO
work. There were over eighty employees,
and a colored cook was the first to
leave. He swore that one morning be-
fore daylight, when he was cooking break
fast, o headless horseman, with gigantic
axe on his shoulder, fed through the
woods making no noise. The men ridi-

BALTIMORE, ND, Jan. o. Humphrey
Moore, who died here the other day, left
SIS, 1000 to build and support an institution
for the debating societies of Baltimore.
Mr.. Moore was fond Of public discussion.
He believed in settling disputes by discus
,ions, and often declared that he thought
no young man educated who could
not make good extemporaneous
speech. That clause in the will referring
to the institute says that he desires it
established for open discussions in the in
terests of morality, patriotism, intelligence
and political science. Mr.. Moore, when he
came to Baltimore in 1874, opened an old
curiosity shop, where he kept all sorts OF
literature oddities that could not be found
elsewhere. Geo. W. Childs, the Philadel-
phia editor and philanthropist, was, when
lad, a clerk in his store. The money he
made in books he invested in stocks, and
after making over 100000 he retired.

SINGULAR POISONING.

Father and His Seven Children stricken
In ~ Mysterious Manncr-A Case That
PuxEles the Doctors.

New YoRK, Jan. 5,--An uninyiting- look
ing franc house, on Butler street, Brook
lyn, was rented two years ago by James
Mauri, who keeps u drug store on Hicks
street. He has "A wife and seven children,
for whom he has always done his best, but
mover prospercd. Tonight, lying on an
improyised bed in the front room at his
residence, he is In eonvulsions, and when
at Intervals he has command OF his voice,
he speaks with pain and begs those near
him 10 kill him. Ho does not know 1t, but
since he was taken down yesterday, three
OF his children have died This wholesale
sickugss began last Thursday, when
his eldest child, boy OF thirteen,
vent 10 visit an aunt, and two hours after
ward complained OF cramps and began
vomiting and bleeding at the nose. Too
i'll TO be removed he died yesterday at his
aunt's residence, and his death was mys-
terry to the physicians who were called in.
Mrs Mauri, who alone OF the entire fam
lily has not been affected, says that on Sun
day morning last at four o'clock she was
awakened by the cries Of the four chill
drcu. who seemed 10 be suffering eXrru-
tiating pains. The children were Mar
garrett Emanucl, Eugene, twenty
months, Carrie, four years; Alice,
six years; John, eight years, and
Arthur, ten years. Physicians were called,
but they seemed unable either 10 diagnose
the cases or successfully treat them. At
one o'clock this morning baby Eugene died
in violent commissions. Before he expired
no vomited blood; and seemed 10 be con-
sumcd with thirst This afternoon Marga-
rot died, and tonight the belief is ex-
pressed that there will not be one survivor
save Mrs Mauri. Nowcomcs the strangcst
part Of this very strange case. On Mon
day the father, Joseph Mauri, went
homo at six o'clock, aud very soon after
supper he complained Of feeling uhwel.
lie went 10 his store yesterday, but this
morning was unable to leave his bed.
Before daylight he began 10 vomit and TO
cry out for cold drinks, especially milk.
At noon he was seen by u reporter. He
was tossing from side TO side, and talked
ns one la a delirium. "I am burning in
sidc,'i he said frequently, and seemed
TO be afraid that he was about TO be taken
from his home. His wife, a stout, forid-
faced woman, talked quito unconcern-
cdly about the terrible blow which had fal-
len upon tho household, and said that she
had no idea what hnd led 10 the calamity.
| An autopsy on the dead will be held to-
morrow, before which time there may be
new subjects for the surgeons knife,
| Physicians will not express an opinion as
10 the cause, but any criminal reporter OF
| experience will say at once that the out
ward symptoms are those OF nrscnical
| poisoning.
